By god, that’s Duane Akina’s music.

The longtime defensive backs coach for the Texas Longhorns is returning to Austin to replace defensive passing game coordinator and secondary coach Terry Joseph, who departed for the New Orleans Saints on Monday, according to multiple reports.

Anwar Richardson of Orangebloods was the first to report the news.
